What is UrbanPlan? UrbanPlan harnesses the power of experiential learning to help participants gain an understanding of the complex nature of land-use decisions and the role each of us plays in creating better communities. It reaches high schools, under graduate and graduate programs in the Charlotte Community. ULI Charlotte is looking for new volunteers to help with this important outreach!

To participate, volunteers attend an 8-hour (split into two days) virtual training. Check out more information about UrbanPlan below or reach out to [email protected].

Sign up for this upcoming, two-day New Volunteer Training to get in the classroom this Summer, virtually or in-person, across the nation.

More about the Program: UrbanPlan harnesses the power of experiential learning to help participants gain an understanding of the complex nature of land-use decisions and the role each of us plays in creating better communities. UrbanPlan is practical, realistic, dynamic, and challenging – and that’s on purpose. By providing the chance to put theory into practice, UrbanPlan helps our audience – high school students, university students, public officials or community members – think critically about the fundamentals of real estate.

How we support it: Once volunteers have completed our day-long training, they are eligible to serve in classrooms and workshops as Facilitators or as members of a mock City Council for final presentations. They are tasked with challenging participants to think more critically about the UrbanPlan issues. As an UrbanPlan volunteer, you will:

• Make an impact in the community and on the next generation of citizens
• Enjoy professional development and knowledge sharing
• Network with peers across the real estate and land-use industries
